My boss accidentally sent me his ‘list of employees I’d fire first’—and I was number one. Should I say something or just start stealing office supplies
So, yeah, awkward as hell. This morning, my boss sent an email that was meant for another manager but somehow ended up in my inbox. I opened it up (obviously), and it’s literally a list of people he’d let go ‘in case of budget cuts.’ Guess whose name’s at the top? 🤦♂️
Now, I'm not sure if I should go full drama mode and confront him, or if I should play it cool, start ‘borrowing’ the office coffee pods and highlighters, and treat my last days like I’m on a farewell tour.
Any advice? Has anyone else been in a similar situation, or am I just cursed
Getting called “lazy” because you pay for a service, rather than doing it yourself.
Whether it’s housecleaning, car washing, grass cutting, dog walking, whatever.
If you can afford to pay someone fairly to perform a service, then do it. You’re not under some obligation to do everything yourself if you don’t have to, and there’s nothing wrong with, y’know, paying people for work.
Why even fucking care? If they’re getting paid well, then who gives a shit. Work is work. My aunt pays someone $150 a week to clean her house for four hours. My mom bitches about how my aunt is lazy and “selfish”. Look, $150 for four hours’ work is almost forty dollars an hour, so it’s not like she’s being exploited - and for the love of God, what difference does it even make? Would she be moaning if my aunt was paying someone to change her car’s oil or bake a birthday cake? But she could do that herself!
We’re all short on time. There’s nothing wrong with trying to find more by paying someone else to handle something for you. You have a job, they have a job, we’re all being paid by somebod
